There have been endless debates on the differences between a Balkan blend versus a English blend with no clear answer IMO, what is the difference or does it all boil down to terminology?

Inexpensive brands use lower grade tobaccos, and must cover the poor quality with aromatics. Since the UK no longer prevents adulteration of tobaccos,...only some basic drugstore blends and as a new pipe smoker I have to ask; Is it common for tobacco companies to put aromatics in "english style blends" or does that fall under another category?

. As things are today, the commercial pipe tobacco marketeers simply use the terms however they like, so long as they're at least within the ballpark of the wide range of definitions.
